-As mentioned previously, the Inika Charge has been dropped and the Hordika Venom has been edited. I also said more Kanohi will be made available in Nuva! Specifically, we’ll be making the Suletu, Kadin, Mask of Emulation, and Crast upgrade-friendly. The Calix and Felnas are going to stay the way they are, for now at least.

-Also, I decided to go with Canis’s idea for making Rahkshi Staffs compatible with Antidermis Infusion. In addition to buying the staff, you will need to pay 3,000 W to make it Infusion-compatible, which will change its designation in your inventory to “Staff of ___-C”.

-One last upgrade: the Shadow Leech Partial Drain! It may cost 30,000 W, but with this upgrade your fighter will gain Shadow powers in addition to their current Element! It wears off after 10 battles, though, and there are some restrictions involving this and the Elemental Rahkshi Staffs.

-Wraith suggested an item to let the Glatorian fly, so here it is: the Imported Jetpack! 7,000 W, as you would expect.

-Credit to Canis, the Nui Stone will be available for any fighter to purchase! When used by a non-upgraded fighter fighting an upgraded fighter, it targets the stats they have an edge in and splits the difference like a Suletu! Not super sure about the price, but right now I’m thinking 20,000 W.

-Another awesome but impractical item: the Golden Kanohi! If you can shell out 80,000 W and obey the restrictions, you can use this item to have access to the powers of every Kanohi you own at once! And yes, it breaks after one use. Not planning to make this one available in Nuva.

-You’ve been asking for it, so here it is: the Adaptive Armor! But this isn’t an upgrade—no, this is an item that any fighter can buy! This armor will cost 30,000 W, and protects the wearer from any and all stat reductions, plus effects such as blindness, illusions, poison, and whatnot.

-Last but not least, the Golden Armor, also available for any fighter to buy! This one costs 10,000 W, and when brought into battle it prevents any and all Rahkshi Staffs from being used in the match. Great for going up against an opponent who loves their Rahkshi Staffs! It cannot, however, be used to cancel out the Staff power being used by a fighter with an Antidermis Infusion.

Herm.. perhaps, for the Partial Drain, it's more like the Inika Charge? Where shadow is woven into your attacks instead of being an entire other element to access?

Oh! Or, perhaps, symbolizing how a being is split by the conflicts of moral light and shadow, perhaps when you get the Partial Drain, when you use 1 element, either your original or shadow, it's like your Mind is halved? And only together can your full Mind be use to full potential?

I suggested a similar idea when I convinced Pahrak to make the Partial Drain permanent. It was less a hard-and-fast "your Mind is halved," though, and more a "each element has less than its regular power when used for an attack." However, I like the second half of this - that by combining the two elements, you can reach a full-power elemental attack. Consider yourself headcanon'd until Pahrak says otherwise.
